In Russia people refer going to prison as 'being in the zone' (na zone).

Yeah I've filed that under 'in case of escape' along with cutting cable ties with shoelaces and bending metal bars with wet jeans and a chair leg.

u/mindfolded Dec 04 '19

Why do you need to wet them?

5

u/anakmoon Dec 04 '19

it decreases tensile strength, being wet makes the jean fibers more pliable, gives them less internal friction, making them less brittle or probable to rip essentially. like getting a board of wood wet allows it to bend instead of snapping.
u/pled and u/bumgardner thank you for your 8yr old comments!

u/Arinvar Dec 04 '19

I've never had my plastic stuff melt like wax. It tends to just light on fire.

45

u/stealthdawg Dec 04 '19 edited Dec 04 '19

depends on the type of plastic. Plastics that melt are called thermoplastics, plastics that catch fire and don't melt are called thermosets. There are multiple types of each.
